Last rev. PB" 15 exchanged with 1.83 MBP 15" :)

I sent my last rev. 15" PB in for repair. It had lost a key and it was affected by the lines issue. 5 weeks later (today to be more exact), after giving Apple alot of hassle for taking so long, they decided to give me a brand new 15" MBP 1.83 GHz.
It's really nice. No whine, a bit hotter than the PB but no problem at all.

Sometimes they do come through. My 15" MBP was supposed to be sent in for replacement on Saturday of last week. When the 17" was announced on Monday I wanted to trade up. They changed my replacement order to a straight return and ordered me the 17" version instead.

Pretty cool.

I said this in another thread but this is the first time that I was happy to have been sent a defective product

So, you got it maxed out with 2 giga ram and 7.200 rpm. drive? (I mean the 17")

Yes. Totally maxed out. I didn't get the faster drive though. Went for the larger hard disc instead. I did some reading and the jury was still out on whether the faster drive speed would have a noticeable difference.
